What Our Guests Say

Everything was amazing.  All of the catering team were friendly and efficient and the bedrooms were beautiful and much talk around whether their bath was in main room or bathroom! Everything in the hotel was spotlessly clean and I loved all the light and airy spaces and furnishings. I really do hope that we have the opportunity to have another event at Poet’s House as it a real gem.

Went for a works conference. The staff were really lovely and it was all kept in lovely condition, the bathrooms were beautiful.

Thank you so much for a wonderful event. We all really enjoyed it. The support before and during the event was faultless and you definitely made it easier for us, Thank you. 

 

We had a fantastic stay at Poets House. Our event ran perfectly. The customer experience was exceptional and the service superb – the team at Poets House are awesome. You and your team are a credit, and you should all be proud of what you’ve created at Poets House – it’s rather special and a very personalised experience!

I just wanted to thank you for all your help last week. We had such an amazing time at Poet's House, the catering was excellent, and the team was always very friendly and resolved any queries quickly. We couldn't have done this retreat without you and your team, so please pass our gratitude to them as well.

We are looking forward to returning to Poet's House again

I wanted to thank all the team for all their hard work, from my first contact with you, you have been so helpful and responsive, our event from start to finish went so well, and we know SO MUCH of that down to the hard work from you and the team.  The hotel is stunning, as are the rooms and the staff were so attentive and friendly, really couldn’t do enough for us. Our biggest compliment is that many of the team asked if we could come back to Poets house for next years team event 😊 We really did have the best time, THANK YOU ALL.

Many thanks to you and the Poets House team, our team away day was a great success and everyone commented on what a lovely venue it was and how helpful the staff were. Please do pass on my thanks to the Poets House team.
